[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have worked at multiple big name consulting firms and we prefer SLAC graduates over big universities including Ivies. SLAC kids tend to have better writing and communication/[b]storytelling skills[/b] - not for every industry but certainly preferred in our line of work. [/quote]

So you prefer LAC kids over Ivy League graduates because the LAC kids are better bs artists. LAC kids are better bs artists because they lack hard skills as [b]humanities majors[/b].

The above post is total bs as anyone can view the school backgrounds of management consulting firms.[/quote]

Ignorant much? SLACs offer degrees in CS, math, physics, chem, bio, econ, etc. Their graduates just have a much broader education than their counterparts. And, these students typically enjoy much closer relationships with their professors because the class sizes are limited to approx. 30 students. [/quote]

But that PP to whom you're responding is just a knee-jerk SLAC-basher who keeps coming back to naysay [i]any[/i] positive post about SLACs on this (old) thread. Like another person above, I'm puzzled by the need in some people to bash SLACs while talking up large universities, especially as those people seem to have little or no personal experience with SLACs.[/quote]
